RE: [ActiveDir] DNS Issues - ipconfig /flushdns

[Passo, Larry]

Title: DNS Issues - ipconfig /flushdns

When you say “it always shows old ip address” how long are you waiting? If you try to resolve the hostname immediately after the box gets a new ip, it is perfectly normal for the other boxes to have the old address cached. It can take up to 10 minutes for the local caches to flush.   From: Tashildar, Dinesh (Cognizant) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2004 7:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] DNS Issues - ipconfig /flushdns   When we moved desktop from one location to another location (lets say from subnet 18 to subnet 19) and if we try resolve Hostname with IP address, it always shows old Ip address. If we do  ipconfig /flushdns, then only it get's new information… This defiantly something wrong in DNS. Is something I need to change in DNS ?
